I know it ’s weird to be sing about Christmas in July , but while I was scour Amazon forPrime Day 2024deals , I came across a unanimous bargain on the small - but - mighty Xgimi MoGo 2 Pro , an excellentportable projectorthat saved Christmas for my family .
OK , peradventure that ’s a bit melodramatic , but allow me to explain . I hold out in Canada , and if there ’s one affair that the world believe that Canada has a gross ton of , it ’s snow . Well , au contraire , mon amis . It ’s no secret that many American and Canadian states and responsibility had a decrepit snowy time of year last yr , resulting in a dreadfully green and muddy Christmas , a realness that my 12 - twelvemonth - old girl was particularly bummed about . And the gross horizon from our big aliveness elbow room windowpane just exasperated the non - Christmassy feelings .
But on Christmas Eve , while stuffing the tree with presents , a Christmas miracle happened . I hadreviewed the Xgimi MoGo Pro 21080p voguish projector earlier that year , and it became one of my favorite portable motion-picture show machines ( it ’s also on ourbest projector of 2024list ) . In a dark elbow room , it can throw a percipient and hopeful , 400 ISO lumen figure up to 120 inches in size , which was more than enough to contrive a looping wintery wonderland video from YouTube onto the subterfuge of my living room window . Weirdly , as it looped all morning in our fringe , we were all surprised at how well it fooled us into a cozy good sense of wintery bliss .
It was ridiculously quick and easy to do , too . About the size of a Sonos One speaker , I just placed it on the coffee board and guide the irradiation at the screen . Its auto lynchpin and focus features did all the piece of work fitting and tidy the ikon , and its Android TV operating system gives instant access to YouTube , as well as all the keystreaming servicesyou know and love . you could , of course of instruction , link up externalstreaming devicesto it via HDMI , and it even has an 8 - watt built - in loudspeaker system that ’s o.k. in a tinge — do n’t interest , you could also connect it to anothersound source over Bluetoothfor well sound .
Read myfull critique of the Xgimi MoGo 2 Profor all the details , but the projector can be had for $ 370 , or $ 130 off the pricker price , from now until July 22 , and you should totally grease one’s palms it .
Additionally , Xgimi has also discount several of its other projector for Prime Day 2024 , let in its flagship 4 K projectorthe Horizon Ultra , Horizon Pro , andMoGo 2 .
